I’ve been on the hunt for a doormat for a while now. This list is the result of all my searching. These doormats really are the cream of the crop, in my opinion. Such wonderful finds in this top 10 doormat list… I love them all! I’m leaning towards #6 (the Pink Cosmos Bed, Bath & Beyond Doormat) for myself. Reasons: tight budget & my life lately is in much need of some girly pink. What girly girl couldn’t use a little more pink, don’t you agree? If budget wasn’t restricting me then #4 (the Delightful Doormats – Crown from Wisteria) would be my top pick. I’m really into that heavy-weight coir material that most of these rugs are made of. I’ve had one in the past that shed a whole lot, but I’d still buy another – they’re so beautiful. There are two rope doormats & even a cast iron one in this list that have won my heart. All lovely in their unique ways. Which is your favorite?

Oooo… benches! So, originally I wanted this post to include only the kind of benches that you can pull up to a dining table, but I made it include ALL types of benches instead. The type you stick at the foot of the bed, the type you’d use in an entry or foyer, and yes, the type that can pull up to a dining table for that cozy picnic feel. These are benches selected only for their looks – with no cap on price, space or size (makes it more fun that way, doesn’t it?). My favorite from this list depends on the mood I’m in… if you can understand that! They are all in a way a favorite of mine or they wouldn’t be in this list. I hope you enjoy this post as much as I enjoyed putting it together. Who knows, maybe you’ll even end up feeling inspired!

I must say, this was a tough top 10 list to come up with. Beautiful headboards are hard to come by, in my opinion. My first top 10 list in this blog was sofas. I feel like I can make a whole other top 10 sofas (part 2) list – there are so many fabulous sofas out there that I “heart”. Now headboards are another story…. these that I consider worthy to be in this list are headboards that I would buy for my own home – again with no cap on price, space or size. I know, I’m dreaming…just dream with me! Aren’t these headboards gorgeous? These are NOT beds – only the back of a bed. I think of beds as able to be centered in the middle of a large enough room. They can stand on their own. Headboards on the other hand are usually hung on the wall – lined up with the bed that will be in front of them. I haven’t gotten the privilege to own a headboard yet – we’ve only done beds so far in our home. But if I were in the market for a headboard I would shop from this top 10 list. Trust me, I’ve done my research. There are many headboards out there, but most of them I will categorized as aesthetically normal and plain. These are truly the top 10 out there; the cream of the crop.

I’m starting a new blog category today… It’ll be called “Top 10″. These will be my top 10 picks on furniture & home related items that I would buy for myself… if I won the lottery! LOL! Basically I’m putting no cap on price, space or size… These picks are purely for their aesthetics – just something about them scream “gorgeous” to me. So gorgeous that they deserve to be in a blog post. Different from my “love at first gasp” category in that these are items currently for sale. My love at first gasp posts have been & will continue to be mostly about photos of rooms that aren’t purchase-able… if that’s a word! While, again, the items featured in my top 10 category are purchase-able. (I think I just made up a new word!) This blog post is dedicated to fabulous 10 sofas that have won my heart. They are each gorgeous in their own way. I would pair any two together in one room as in some way they all seem to compliment each other in my head. I love & want them all! They are NOT in order of preference – they are all equally wanted by me! I hope this post serves as a great reference tool & even inspires you. Enjoy!
